PG&E is now on a fast track to update its aging infrastructure. To keep equipment from sparking any more fires in high-risk areas, it is implementing the rolling blackoutsBrian Boyd checks one of the generators used to provide power at the Clear Creek Crossing store near Paradise, Calif., Oct. 24, 2019.
Generator manufacturers are scrambling to meet the surge in demand. Generac is hosting training sessions in hotel conference rooms for new technicians and it’s looking to open a storefront with a warehouse in the Sacramento area. Its dealers’ calendars are booked months in advance. Kohler, which makes generators for homes and small businesses, said that it hopes to increase its capacity in California by 100 percent to meet demand.
These particles can be carried over long distances, and can increase acidity in lakes and streams, deplete nutrients in soil, and damage forests and farm crops,Portable generators emit microscopic particles that can be inhaled into the deepest recesses of the lungs, causing respiratory issues. “Cumulatively, you may not have an increase in emissions that violates clean air standards," UCLA's Carlson said."But you might have spikes in areas where generator concentrations are high.”
If California had taken care of things without going nuts over global warming scares they would not be facing the increased damage they've done nor the rise in out put that they are facing! It's their extremism that has boomeranged into extreme reactions! They need to chill out.
It's been on my list of things to buy for some time as earthquake preparedness, but PG&E finally pushed it to the top of the list.
